ZipZip

🗜️ Simple RLE Zip/Unzip in C

A simple text compression and decompression project written in pure C using the Run-Length Encoding (RLE) algorithm.
This project is lightweight, doesn’t require external libraries, and can even run on Android devices using Termux or Cxxdroid.

🚀 Features

Compress a text file (input.txt) into a simple .rle format
Decompress .rle files back to the original text
Written in pure C 🖥️
Can run on phones or PCs
Great for learning C and file handling

⚡ How to Run

On Android (Termux)

Install Termux and tools: ```bash pkg update pkg install clang git use bash and download ZipProject
Navigate to project folder:

cd ZipProject/src

Compile the program:

clang main.c -o myzip

Run the program:

./myzip

1 → Compress input.txt → output.rle

2 → Decompress output.rle → decompressed.txt

💡 Notes

RLE is simple and effective for repetitive text, but not ideal for large or binary files.

You can expand this project to support multiple files or folders.

Perfect for learning file I/O, loops, and basic compression in C.
